......

The donation of the Liu Mansion ended. According to statistics from the Minister of the Honglu Temple and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, a total of 723,000 taels of silver and 58,000 taels of gold were raised.

This huge amount of money will be filled into the national treasury, as military pay, food, grass, and disaster relief funds, etc.

Many ministers were drunk and took off their shackles and discomforts in their hearts. They saluted Zhao Wujiang. Some admired Zhao Wujiang, and some compliments Zhao Wujiang to seek power...

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the banquet was completely over.

During the three hours, some ministers were drunk or left for something. Until the last hour, there were only a few people left in the banquet hall.

Zhao Wujiang, Liu Zhe, Dugu Yihe, Li Chenxu...

When Zhao Wujiang asked about the death of the late emperor, Liu Zhe smiled but said nothing, Dugu Yihe's face was slightly dark, and Li Chenxu hesitated.

Obviously they all had speculations in their hearts, but because there was no evidence, they kept silent, and they also advised Zhao Wujiang not to get involved in this matter.

......

The imperial city, the imperial study room, the empress just sat down.

Just now, the palace servants sent a message that the Minister of Revenue submitted an urgent memorial for her to review it.

She looked at the memorial in front of her, and she felt suspicion in her heart, and she had a vague premonition.

The empress opened the memorial submitted by Liu Wanshan, and the memorials were densely filled with small characters.

[The Emperor Sheng'an, the old minister Liu Wanshan disturbed him.

Today, the Secretariat ordered Lord Liu to hold a banquet in his mansion, and Lord Zhao, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, asked his colleagues to donate money to make up for the deficiency of the national treasury.

My colleagues were deeply grateful to the emperor and gave them all the money. As the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the old minister will record them one by one. Please check it out by the emperor.

The Secretary of the Central Committee, Liu Zhe, had 100,000 taels of silver.

The servant Dugu Yihe, a heir, and a hundred thousand taels of silver.

Lin Ruhai, Minister of Personnel, had 40,000 taels of silver.

....

Taichang Shaoqing Su Quji, 20,000 taels of gold.

Liu Wanshan, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, had 50,000 taels of silver.

....

Zhao Wujiang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, had 10,000 taels of gold.

......

Li Wushi, the head of the Ministry of Rites, was 3,000 taels of silver.

A total of 723,000 taels of silver and 58,000 taels of gold.

Today, the silver and money of the various tribes will be put into the warehouse at the You hour. Please review it by the emperor.]

After reading the memorial, the empress had already collapsed on the Huanghuali wooden chair. She looked disbelief and was shocked.

Obviously, he called on all the ministers to raise funds, but all the ministers were shirking their responsibilities. Why did Zhao Wujiang respond when these ministers respond?

What happened? How did Zhao Wujiang do it?

The empress's hand holding the memorial tightly was trembling. She was shocked and read the memorial carefully, and finally confirmed that the matter was true.

Her chest was undulating and she was extremely happy. Now that the national treasury has been filled, it is a great thing.

Zhao Wujiang made contributions, and the ministers made contributions, and I want to reward them... The empress bit her red lips lightly, suddenly became stunned, and she said in her heart that she was terrible.

She remembered the bet with Zhao Wujiang, the bet that changed his hand to a mouth, such as Liu Qingqing and others leaned over and slapped Tian Xian.

She swallowed, her cheeks flushed for a moment.

She was the emperor and did what she said, but when she thought of this, she felt extremely embarrassed and upset.

Every time the concubine is sleeping, she is excited and expectant about Zhao Wujiang doing things. She is very puzzled. What's so exciting about this kind of thing?

...

What's so exciting about this kind of thing? Zhao Wujiang was slightly drunk and returned to the bedroom of Yangxin Palace. He sat on the chair and found that the empress was missing. At this moment, he was a little excited and expectant.

The beginning of You hour, the right hour, the end of You hour, and the end of You hour.

A whole hour passed, the sky light outside the house was shrinking, the evening star was about to emerge, and the empress still never returned to the palace.

She was wandering outside the Palace of Peaceful Heart. She guessed that Zhao Wujiang was waiting for her, and was embarrassed and tortured her heart. She regretted why she wanted to make such a bet with Zhao Wujiang.

But if it's going to be dark today, where can she hide?

Even if she escapes tonight, what about the future? She can escape the first day of the lunar month and the fifteenth day of the lunar month!
